Budva Real Estate: Property for Sale in Budva, Montenegro

Budva property for sale: one municipality, many coastlines

The municipality of Budva runs along the open Adriatic from Jaz beach in the north to Buljarica in the south. Between them lie the town itself, the long beach of Bečići, the old fishing village of Rafailovići, the small bay of Pržno, the islet of Sveti Stefan and the town of Petrovac. Together they form the Budva Riviera, the most developed stretch of coast in the country.

Apartments make up most of the offer, from studios in older blocks to units in new buildings with a reception and parking. Villas, houses and building plots account for the rest, mostly on the hills above the coast, along with some shops and offices in town.

Budva town: Old Town, beaches and a year-round centre

Budva's Old Town sits on a small peninsula, surrounded by walls, with the citadel, churches and narrow stone lanes. The marina lies just in front of it. To the west is Mogren beach, to the east the Slovenska plaža promenade, and offshore the island of Sveti Nikola. Around this core the town has grown into a full urban centre with shops, schools, a hospital and offices that stay open in winter.

Summer is loud and crowded. Out of season Budva becomes a calm town where people live and work. Buyers who want a flat for both holidays and longer stays usually start with apartments in Budva town centre, in neighbourhoods close to the sea or a short walk inland.

Bečići and Rafailovići: the long sandy beach

East of the town, Bečići has one of the longest sandy beaches on the coast, lined with hotels and residential buildings. Rafailovići continues at its eastern end, a former fishing village with restaurants right by the water. Both suit families and holiday-home buyers who want the beach outside the door and Budva a short walk along the coastal path. See apartments for sale in Bečići for the current choice.

Pržno, Sveti Stefan and Reževići

Further south the coast becomes greener and more exclusive. Pržno is a small bay next to the Miločer park. Sveti Stefan, the islet joined to the mainland by a narrow sandbar, is one of the best known views in Montenegro. The village behind it climbs the hillside, and above it lie Blizikuće and the Reževići area with its old monastery. Real estate in Sveti Stefan includes apartments, villas and plots on these slopes.

Petrovac and Buljarica: a quieter south

Petrovac is a small town with a promenade under pine trees and the Kastio fortress at the end of its beach. It is popular with families and buyers who want a gentler summer than in Budva. Just south, Buljarica has a wide, open beach and a valley with fields and houses. Property for sale in Petrovac includes flats in town and houses in the hills around it.

The hills: Lastva Grbaljska, Krimovica and the villages

Behind Jaz beach, the Grbalj villages such as Lastva Grbaljska and Krimovica offer more space and lower density than the coast. Here buyers look for family houses, villas with gardens and land for building. The beaches and the town are reached by car.
